Shock and anger as antisemitic graffiti found in children’s playground

Antisemitic graffiti has been discovered daubed in a children’s playground in Rochester, Kent.

A father walking his young daughter to school on Monday morning is reported to have discovered the pro-Hitler messages at the local Jackson’s playing field.

Darren Kett, 44, a warehouse worker, posted photos of the offensive graffiti on social media – and demanded that Chatham council have it removed as quickly as possible.

The father-of-three from Rochester wrote: “You don’t expect to see this sort of thing anywhere let along a place where kids go to play."
